Electron-molecule scattering cross-sections. I. Experimental techniques and data for diatomic molecules

Cross section data are collected and reviewed for electron collisions with carbon monoxide. Collision processes included are total scattering, elastic scattering, momentum transfer, excitations of rotational, vibrational and electronic states, ionization, and dissociation. For each process, recommended values of the cross sections are presented, when possible. The literature has been surveyed through to the end of 2013.

One century of experiments on electron-atom and molecule scattering: A critical review of integral cross-sections

Absolute electron-scattering total cross sections for noble gas atoms (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe) and H,, N, , CO, NO, and 0, molecules have been measured at impact energies between 0.5 and 250eV by the linear transmission method with the same experimental set-up for all the investigated targets. Generally, our total cross sections have been found to be in good agreement with other data with respect to shape. Some systematic discrepancies in magnitude still exist between results of different groups, especially at the lowest applied energies and in the energy range where the cross sections peak. At these energies, new measurements should be carried out before establishing a reference set of data.
